i got one at linuxworld, it's pretty awesome. it does chomp through batteries, but with a bright backlight, it's expected (this is adjustable). it's very fast and yes, you can cross-compile Qt apps for it. it also does embedded java - which is the primary reason i got it. i like it much better than my palm3 and agenda. also it has a CF type 2 expansion slot so it can use wired and wireless networking cards. this definately has the potential to supplant a notebook - especially with hancom office running on it (they had that on display at linuxworld). the consumer verion will be out in march or so.
